Yeah I read a little more and realized that the video is actually stored on the device. For some reason I didn't get that immediately. I would have concerns using something like this, if someone ransacked my place of business or whatever (and it looks like this is targeted towards people who might have that sort of problem), it would be problematic if I couldn't view the video it recorded just because I didn't have the USB key anymore. It would also bug me that I couldn't store an encrypted version of my videos for backup (of course I could encrypt them myself, but that kind of defeats the purpose of this device). So if I wanted to have some redundancy I'd have to store un-encrypted backups of my data, or be at the mercy of someone stealing my device. For $6,000, I'm afraid I'd pass on this. |

It looks like there's no reason why the camera and the device have to be within a certain number of feet of each-other, other than limitations in cable and such. So, you could lock the device inside of a safe constructed specifically for it, or inside a wall, or something. (I actually have a client with a real "false bookcase", and that would be an idea storage area.)
I bet they could upgrade their software to allow you to download a copy of your encrypted video. They've yet to release their specific algorithms used, but I don't see anything that would prevent that based on their diagrams and text.
